The biggest test of all... The on-water test! After you’ve found the boat with all the features you need and confi rmed with the dealer it fi ts your budget, the fi nal step is the biggest test of all... On-water test ‘ You must do your research to , ensure you get the best boat. This is the time when a lot of salespeople start to come up with excuses. It’s too windy... we don’t have time... we don’t have one available to test... If the boat is as good as they say it is, they must be prepared to prove it to you on the water. If they want to take your money without being prepared to prove the boat to you, walk away. The boat is probably a lemon and will not perform. The reality is that all boats perform well on a calm day. The big test is to test a boat in a bit of wind. Ideally, 15-20 knots of wind and up to 1 metre of wind chop. It’s at a time like this that the boat will either pass or fail the test. Ask the salesperson to run the boat with the waves. Then into the waves. Stop the boat and see how stable it is at rest. Stand at the side and get a feel what it’s like to fi sh from. Sit on the side decks. Ask the salesperson to do a few tight turns with the motor trimmed in. Does the prop aerate and engine over rev in tight turns Note how fast the boat gets onto the plane. Note if the boat feels predictable and comfortable through the water. Does the engine seem well suited to the boat Note how well the boat launches and retrieves on and off its trailer. P 13
Five-year warranty... Now that’s real condence! It amazes us that some aluminium boat manufacturers don’t have enough faith in their product to offer a decent warranty. Some manufacturers offer as little as two or three years. The question to ask is: why so short What happens after this period Sometimes you have to read between the lines and use your instincts. Bar Crusher offers a structural warranty on every hull for a full fi ve-years. That’s confi dence! Remember... All Bar Crusher dealers will be delighted to take you out in a Bar Crusher. Our boats perform beautifully and if you go out in one you will love the performance!
